Tried WDS/Nstreme on a RB500 → RB500 permanently rebooting without traffic.
Changing from Nstreme to 802.11 RB500 stays alive.
*) pcq - added burst settings, like in “/queue tree” and “/queue simple”;
Very excited about this. Thank you.
What bridge filter rules are not working for you? I cannot reproduce any problems on Routerboards or x86.
What bridge filter rules are not working for you? I cannot reproduce any problems on Routerboards or x86.
This, for example:
chain=forward action=log mac-protocol=ip src-port=0-65535 ip-protocol=tcp
This works:
chain=input action=log mac-protocol=ip src-port=0-65535 ip-protocol=tcp
All interfaces in the bridge are vlan’s.
The “Traffic” graph for Wlan interface ONLY shows Tx Rate, Rx Rate is broken, stays at “0 bps” while using NV2.
I believe that this is overall problem of 5’th version - not counting traffic. Must be related to my “simple queue’s” post in this topic and also to torch issues in previous RC’s.
RC5 CoA does not disconnect PPPoE client. In which previous versions did this work?
Does anyone know why switching to NV2 modes drops the signal by around 5-10db?
Mikrotik v5.0 RC5 cannot send email.
ROS on x86 + Core 2 Duo + RAM 2GB.
Which v5.x can send email ? I have to use send mail for my SLA monitoring.
Signals drop and CCQ goes from 80% down to 15% or sometimes single digits on the same client. It isn’t only NV2 that does it but the NV2 wireless package in V4.13. NV2 works very well for about 4-8hrs then it tanks, I have done just about everything I can to try to figure it out and I am finally throwing in the towel and rolling everything back to non NV2 wireless package. It really is a shame too because when NV2 works it does some pretty amazing stuff speed wise. But it is way too unstable for a production setting and with it being in a stable release 4.13 it should be stable IMO.
Chadd
NV2 has been performing pretty great for me the past 2 days with my PtP backhaul. Of course, this is a 2 mile link and I had to get larger dishes to get the signal down to -51db.
With just regular Nstream, dual-chain, my data rates were all over the place ranging from 107Mbps-HT/160Mbps-HT, with signals down around -48db (how good do you have to get it get the full 300Mbps data rate lol)
With NV2-Nstream, data rates are a SOLID 270/270Mbps, and I can push almost 200Mbps UDP SEND and 180Mbps UDP Receive, which I am VERY happy with 
I just hesitate on trying this on my long-mile links because you lose about 5-10db signal with NV2 for some reason… hopefully Mikrotik can find out why.
-48 ? Did you try to lower the tx powers ?
I started out with a signal in the mid -60’s (panel to panel). Since I wanted to go dual-pol, I had to use a rocket dish and a dual-pole panel I had in stock. Reason for the rocket dish is because twice now, we had some heavy snow storms what caked enough snow on the panel to drop the signal to the -80’s and the link would drop. I wanted to make sure this link is bullet-proof.
I have not installed on any PTP links only PTMP. So I can’t speak for NV2 in PTP environment.
same issue with 4 core cpu Phenom II 970 - downgdraded back to 5.0rc3, no problem with kvm
please upgrade to RouterOS v4.14 and try again.
Signal was -64/-63 with regular Nstreme. After upgrading to 4.15 and turning on NV2, signal drops to -69/-68, and data rates drop to 135/135 (was 150/150).
Also, I tested this using an XR5 link and the signal rates don’t seem to be effected by NV2, just only the 802.11n cards (in my case SR71-15).
Currently Nv2 can’t use short guard interval so the max data rates for 802.11n are 135Mbps and 270Mbps.
Hai. I have also noticed that the Usermanager doesn’t disconnect users when the profile validity is over. If you log off and try log in again it works if validity is over. But if one doesn’t log off the machine then he can even use it for 2 months wishing power never goes off. This should be checked by MK. Please ask them.
I see now, but is there a cause for the decreased signal strength? Does NV2 have less transmit power? I know the Ubquiti products can transmit at very high db using TDMA, I was
hoping NV2 would have better signal transmit power, not less.
Other than that, so far I am impressed. Although I only use Mikrotik for PtP applications, I am enjoying the increased TCP throughput with NV2.
